Tribute to my Youngest Sister
My young sister has been in and out of the hospital over the past 2 weeks with a tumor in her pancreas. We will get the biopsy results back next week, She woke up this am in excruciating pain to the point that she had to be readmitted to the hospital this afternoon. Even though weak and hurting she insisted that before being brought to the medical facility she be taken to her polling place to vote for Obama. Here's to mt sister's courage and commitment. Keep her in your prayers. GOBAMA !!!

Edited on Tue Nov-04-08 04:54 PM by noiretblu
i lost my younger sister to breast cancer in march of 2006. i have been thinking about her and my dad all week (he passed just four months before her). i am so sad that they aren't here to see obama become president because they both detested bush.

your sister sounds a lot like mine...courageous and a fighter. i will keep you both in my thoughts and prayers. and please let us know how she is doing :hug:

16.  Thank you so much. I will remember her and your Dad in my
prayers tonight. My Mom and Dad would have loved this election. I do believe that they and your kin are with us tonight and will join us in celebrating this historic day.
